Communication skills can be some of the most challenging for a manager at any level to master. It is something we all do regularly but few do well. The challenge is to send and receive messages that are understood and acted on. Career success comes from being able to communicate in writing, in a succinct and persuasive way. This full day course explains and illustrates the most important principles and practices of successful verbal and written communication. This course outlines strategies that will make your verbal messages more effective and your writing cleaner, crisper and more effective.
